Star Trek Adventure (Superior)

Another adventure game for the BBC computer. Instead of fighting dragons or rescuing damsels, you have to fight the Klingons and rescue Spock.

To do this you have to make the Enterprise operable again by collecting certain things from around the ship and taking them to other places in the ship. Unlike other adventures I have seen, the information given to you by the computer stays at the top of the screen and doesn't scroll up when your instructions scroll. It accepts most normal adventure commands consisting of two words, a verb followed by a noun. The most annoying thing I found, was when I asked for help, all the computer replied was "Help prohibited by STARFLEET prime directive 5"...!
